EP 37 Retirement By Design, Not Default

“It's not a new book, it's a new chapter!”Challenging traditional notions of retirement as an end to work, our guest, Retirement Life Coach Wendy Leggett, brings the ideal insights and tactics to help you shift out of a retirement “default” setting, and into a thoughtful exploration that can lead to greater fulfillment.Wendy emphasizes the importance of planning and reflection when transitioning from work life to retirement, including the need for closure rituals and embracing the messy middle before embarking on the new beginning phase.She encourages retirees to find meaning and purpose in this new chapter of life through exploration, experimentation, and connecting with their values. Wendy’s coaching provides valuable tools and guidance for individuals navigating this significant life transition. I especially loved her emphasis on emotional awareness, intentional planning, and the importance of embracing new possibilities – the ideal perspective for thriving after 65!Please visit her website ConfluxRetirementCoaching.com to learn more about Wendy’s coaching services and be sure to connect with her on LinkedIn.If you found inspiration from this conversation, please rate, review and share this episode.I’d love to hear your thoughts, so be sure to hop on over to Don’t Be Caged By Your Age on LinkedIn or Instagram.
